Description
A long necked woman is shown as a portrait in Thailand. I must admit that I had some pre-conceived ideas about the subject of Long-necked women. Any images that I had previously seen did nothing to dispel my bias on the subject. Once I entered the village I was astounded how beautiful these women were. I did not expect this... These women would no doubt be beautiful without the neck alterations but I admit that they are unique and interesting. All of the girls and women I photographed were gracious with their smiles and their wonderful clear skin and eyes. An interesting cultural event for me and one I am pleased that I had an opportunity in Thailand to witness and photograph.

Bravo Bob. You managed to get this amazing expression , which i think is rare in this village, where they look quite sad, while exposing their custom to tourists.
Bob Christopher replied:
Hi Nili...Yes, the women seemed happy enough to smile etc once they were comfortable with me photographing them. I found them very beautiful and charming and I guess they relaxed as a result...Thank you so much for your compliment on my image...Cheers Bob
